kitty baby

I am not too sure what Quinn understands and doesn't. I assume sometimes that he doesn't get it then he proves me wrong... like does a two year old actually know that the big Cat in the Hat played by Mike Meyers is actually a cat... can he see our little tabby cat Molly, all six pounds of her and associate that with this Mike Meyers thing with a striped hat? Quinn will be in his first Halloween parade tomorrow so tonight we tried on our Cat in the Hat costume and strutted our stuff around the living room... I say strut because that is what he did... he loves his new costume! I stood him up in front of a mirror and let him take a gander at himself... first he said "cute baby" (yes he calls himself that, wonder where he got that from) then he took a closer look, up at his two foot hat, at his big red bow tie, then down too his black jumper and said "kitty". It's odd what I consider proud mamma moments. Then I felt bad for thinking he wouldn't get it... I mean he's not dumb... maybe it's not such a stretch for a two year old to see little Molly as a big fat black cat that's six feet tall and can talk... all though that brings up another question... does he understand that the little men in the TV are actually tall and big? Maybe that is why kids go to Disney and freak out when they see the six-foot tall mouse they use to know and love in the little box.

"Cute kitty baby" pics tomorrow.
